A little Madness in the Spring
by Emily Dickinson
A little Madness in the Spring
Is wholesome even for the King,
But God be with the Clown—
Who ponders this tremendous scene—
This whole Experiment of Green—
As if it were his own!

in Poetry, take time to talk Tags: And plod, and shout, blade end upand five feet tall, I don't stand still and look around, I go for a friendly visit, I thrust my hoe in the mellow ground, On all the hills I haven't hoed, public domain, Robert Frost, slows his horse to a meaning walk, take time to talk, When a friend calls to me from the road
A Time to Talk
by Robert Frost
When a friend calls to me from the road
And slows his horse to a meaning walk,
I don’t stand still and look around
On all the hills I haven’t hoed,
And shout from where I am, ‘What is it?’
No, not as there is a time to talk.
I thrust my hoe in the mellow ground,
Blade-end up and five feet tall,
And plod: I go up to the stone wall
For a friendly visit.
